Abstract:
As on previous occasions, the editors of the New England Journal of Entrepreneurship have sought to interview local small businessowners as well as entrepreneurs who have national reputations. One such small business operator is Allan Lichter, coowner of Millennium Graphics in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Mr. Lichterʼs story is certainly unique to him and to his partner, but readers may resonate with portions of this story as to how challenging it can be to surmount the ups and downs of the business cycle.

Abstract:
Within the last 15 years, Wes Anderson has become one of the most recognizable American directors. From his debut Bottle Rocket to his last movie Isle of Dogs, he has built a specific world full of quirky characters, fancy items, all engulfed in a particularly idiosyncratic visual style. The article tries to point out that the dominance of Anderson’s cinema is precisely his visual style and creation of a cinematic space. The visual perspective seems to be the most suitable and, at the same time, prolific to analyse his filmography. The article investigates Anderson’s way of building mise-en-scène. How does he use symmetrical frames, closed composition, or scenographic elements, what is the point of all this hassle? However, the most essential angle is strictly connected to production studies – creating space in pre-production (break-downs, storyboards, location hunting), which defines the style of Anderson. The article traces differences between production and design in his feature films and the animated Fantastic Mr Fox and Isle of Dogs. Seeking hyper realistic locations, spending most of the budget on authentic World War II ships or simply adapting interiors – those cases will help to dwell in the cinematic mind of the American director. Finally, the paper tries to prove that analysing the production side can tell us a huge amount about Anderson’s visual style and world-building.

Abstract:
AbstractRacial segregation has been a persistent feature of the American social landscape and a longstanding contributor to racial inequality, particularly between Blacks and Whites. Affirmative action policies have been used to address the systemic discrimination and attendant socioeconomic consequences to which African Americans have been subjected. Yet affirmative action has not been widely used in all domains in which segregation and systemic discrimination occurred. Although such policies have been adopted in the domains of employment and postsecondary education, few federal affirmative action programs have been used in housing. This is surprising given high levels of segregation across the metropolitan United States, as well as the stated integrative objectives of the U.S. Congress when it passed the Fair Housing Act of1968. To understand this puzzle, we use the Gautreaux Assisted Housing Program, a housing mobility effort of the Federal government and the Chicago Housing Authority that used explicit racial criteria, as a surrogate for affirmative action in housing more broadly. We conduct a comparative analysis of Gautreaux and affirmative action in college admissions using insights from applied political philosophy and sociology. By confronting Gautreaux with a more traditional affirmative action program, we are able to identify and compare the judicial, moral, and instrumental justifications for each, enabling us to draw conclusions about whether and how affirmative action can justifiably be used on a large scale to reduce neighborhood segregation, the possible forms it could take, and the difficulties it would face. We close with a discussion of the recent shift toward integration taken by the Department of Housing and Urban Development under the Obama administration, its relationship to affirmative action, and its implications for declines in residential segregation in the United States.

“Picture book” is one kind enables the reader by relaxed, and gives birth for the first time the mood reads reading material. The folk religion is a practice of an outlook of life. It is deeply influenced by environment, customs. Humanity's life style and the nature interdependent tightly and have close linking with the inalienable values. Therefore people have more respects on nature. In Taiwan, we can usually see people worship on “Shu Gong” ( God of Trees ). Trees over one hundred years old always tied a red ribbon on the trunks. An idol of “Tu Di Gong”, a censer and fruits are set under the trees. People treat the old trees as spirits which bless the local area. They invoke “Shu Gong” for their health, safety, and abundant material life. The story combines Taiwanese folk religion of nature worship. Based on the tradition of invoking to natural spirit, the author creates two roles. “Mr. Up” on behalf of natural spirit and “Mrs. Down” represents an ordinary person who invoke God to make her wishes come true. The author uses humorous way to find the balance between “making wishes” and “accomplishing wishes”. This thesis contains three chapters: Chapter one, Background, provides the author’s creation ideas. Chapter two, Literary research, offers a discussion of the definitions, characteristics and comparisons from children’s books in related field. Chapter Three provides a creation process, which includes the acquisition of information, the experiment creation, character development, story board and actual creation. The creation process is influenced by old pictures, thus the nostalgia of this book is used. The author combines old style buildings and figures in the street scenery and sets the plot in old time. The atmosphere of this story for children is in simple and slightly oppressed style. The conclusion analyzes the structure of this study. The author seeks her individual vocabulary for the future self-identity through these procedures.

Abstract:
Down-sampling is widely adopted in deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) for reducing the number of network parameters while preserving the transformation invariance. However, it cannot utilize information effectively because it only adopts a fixed stride strategy, which may result in poor generalization ability and information loss. In this paper, we propose a novel random strategy to alleviate these problems by embedding random shifting in the down-sampling layers during the training process. Random shifting can be universally applied to diverse DCNN models to dynamically adjust receptive fields by shifting kernel centers on feature maps in different directions. Thus, it can generate more robust features in networks and further enhance the transformation invariance of down-sampling operators. In addition, random shifting cannot only be integrated in all down-sampling layers including strided convolutional layers and pooling layers, but also improve performance of DCNN with negligible additional computational cost. We evaluate our method in different tasks (e.g., image classification and segmentation) with various network architectures (i.e., AlexNet, FCN and DFN-MR). Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.

In XIth International Congress on Thrombosis and Haemostasis. Schattauer GmbH, 1987. http://dx.doi.org/10.1055/s-0038-1642870.

Full text
Abstract:
We have previously demonstrated that unfractionated heparin causes platelet aggregation (>50%) in about 40% of normal healthy donors tested. H-IPA occurs in a dose-dependent manner and can be inhibited by antogonists of the thromboxane pathway. Using a LMW heparin preparation (PK 10169) and fractions of this agent separated on the basis of molecular weight (MW) by gel permeation chromatography, we showed that H-IPA was dependent upon the MW of the agents tested. In order to further examine this MW dependence, we tested two other LMW heparin preparations, CY 216 (Mol. wt: 5600) and CY 222 (mol. wt: 3800), and 9 subfractions of each of these agents separated on the basis of MW. Blood was drawn from the same donors whose platelets aggregated when heparin was added to their platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and placed into citrate anticoagulant. PRP was prepared, various concentrations of the agents or their fractions were added and aggregation was monitored for 40 minutes at 37°C. Dose/response curves were constructed from the data obtained with each agent. Compared to unmodified heparin with Mr = 15,000 daltons (D), the dose/response curves for CY 216 (Mr = 5000 D) and CY 222 (Mr = 3,500 D) were shifted progressively down and to the right. Dosq' response curves for each of the fractions of CY 216 and CY 222 demonstrated that as the molecular weight of the fractions decreased, the dose/response curves were also shifted progressively down and to the right. These results indicate that as MW decreases, higher concentrations of the fractions are required to cause aggregation, and the maximum aggregation obtained decreases. Fractions with MW less than 2,500 daltons caused aggregation only at concentrations exceeding supra therapeutic range. Since heparin and LMW fractions have inhibitory activity to the activated clotting factors Ila and Xa and LMW fractions have higher anti-Xa than anti-IIa activity, we measured these activities and attempted to correlate them with the ability to cause H-IPA. No correlation between AXa and H-IPA was found. We conclude that the ability to cause H-IPA is an inherent property of heparin and is molecular weight dependent.

Full text
Abstract:
J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) is a multi-purpose research facility for materials and life sciences, nuclear and particle physics, and nuclear engineering with extremely high power proton beams of 1 MW. The accelerator complex consists of a 400-MeV linac, a 3-GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS), and a 50-GeV Main Ring synchrotron (MR). Its goals are to provide MW-class beams at 3 GeV and at several 10 GeV, while it is a challenge to localize and suppress beam loss to the level to allow hands-on maintenance of accelerator components. The RCS scheme is adopted to realize them, which is advantageous over conventional Accumulation Ring (AR) regarding less beam loss problems due to lower beam current and easier construction and operation of a linac. RCS, however, required various challenging technologies such as ceramic ducts to reduce eddy current effects, high field Radio Frequency (RF) system, and paint injection technique (an injection scheme to reduce phase space density of the beam) to reduce space charge effects. The linac has also unique technologies to minimize beam loss, such as compact electromagnet Drift Tube Quadrupoles (DTQ’s) to control beam envelopes precisely, and a fast beam suspending system in Machine Protection System (MPS) with Radio Frequency Quadrupole linac (RFQ). The beam commissioning of the linac started in Nov. 2006, and its design energy of 181 MeV in the first construction phase was achieved in Jan. 2007. RCS beam commissioning started in Sep. 2007 and the beam was accelerated to the designed energy of 3 GeV in Oct. 2007. MR beam commissioning started in May 2008, and the beam acceleration to 30 GeV was established in Dec. 2008. The first neutron and muon beams were produced in May and Sep. 2008, respectively, at Materials and Life science experimental Facility (MLF). The linac commissioning has resulted in very stable beam with short down time. RCS commissioning quickly achieved beam acceleration and extraction, and paint injections are being studied intensively. RCS recorded the highest beam power of 0.21 MW in Sep. 2008 with beam loss well localized at the collimators. The linac beam energy will be upgraded to 400 MeV with Annular Coupled Structure linac (ACS) in order to increase the beam power to 1 MW. In the second construction phase, upgrade of the linac with 600-MeV Super-Conducting Linac (SCL) for Accelerator-Driven nuclear waste transmutation System (ADS) and upgrade of MR energy from 30 to 50 GeV are planned.

Baliga, Ravi, Tom Neal Watts, and Harish Kamath. "Application of an Integrated Head Assembly Concept at Pressurized Water Reactor Commercial Nuclear Plants." In 2014 22nd International Conference on Nuclear Engineering. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2014. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/icone22-30916.

Full text
Abstract:
In a typical pressurized water reactor commercial nuclear plant, a number of components such as CRDMs, a lift rig to lift the Reactor Vessel Closure Head (RVCH), seismic restraints, missile shield, and a cooling system with large air ducts are installed on or directly over the RVCH. These components and systems are typically designed and installed individually to perform designated functions during plant operation. During refueling outages the removal of the RVCH from the pressure vessel and its subsequent re-installation on the pressure vessel for fuel loading requires individual dismantling and reassembly of these components resulting in an expensive and time-consuming process. Prior to detensioning the RVCH from the vessel, a lengthy series of steps or detailed procedures must be followed to safely remove the head area components and to store them in their designated spaces inside containment. The procedure generally includes: removal and storage of the concrete missile shield; removal and storage of CRDM cooling ducts; removal of seismic restraints; removal of head area cables; installation of the tripod assembly over the service structure; disconnecting the vent and level indicator lines; and installation of temporary lead blankets around the RVCH. Once the refueling is complete, these procedural steps are repeated in reverse order. Each procedure in the refueling process contributes significantly to the total cost associated with personnel time required to perform the refueling, power plant down time and consequent loss of electricity production, radiation exposure to personnel, and risks and costs associated with potential human errors. In addition, these components require a large amount of storage space inside containment raising the risk of having inadvertent contamination of work and storage areas. To reduce the outage duration and the associated radiation exposure to the workers, the authors have designed an Integrated Head Assembly (IHA) for Callaway nuclear plant based on Mr. Baliga’s patented design as disclosed in U.S. Patents. The IHA is an assembly of all head area components integrally attached to the RVCH so that all these components can be lifted with the RVCH in one assembly (see Figure 1). The IHA also provides a forced air convection system that improves the efficiency of the CRDM cooling. The IHA reduces a significant amount of critical path time and radiation dosage during refueling outages. Mr. Baliga’s invention has been implemented at several commercial nuclear plants in the USA (Turkey Point Units 3 and 4; Salem Units 1 and 2; DC Cook Units 1 and 2; Diablo Canyon Units 1 and 2; Davis Besse Unit 1; and Callaway Unit 1). This paper provides details of the IHA design implemented at Callaway nuclear plant in the USA.
